But instead of sulking,I worked my butt off to show people that I can be successful. My father also worked his butt off when he joined various civil rights organizations. He also did years in both the U.S. Navy and the Military back in the late 50&#39;s and 60&#39;s when segregation was still around.One of the things my father did as part of his civil rights participation was work with young, black youth and encourage them to go to school, college, and live the American dream. My father&#39;s role model would is Dr. Martin Luther King. He would take Dr. King&#39;s example to help these youth become successful. I hope this man can do the same.<br /> My advice to this wonderful, intelligent young man is to take the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King and go for your dream. I would also get some vocational counseling, maybe at a local community college, which is a great way to get a fresh start.Do not let opposition or your past stop you from succeeding.Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05141102845042210216noreply@blogger.com
